EVALUATION OF PEPPER (CAPSICUM ANNUUM) FOR MANAGEMENT OF DIABETES AND HYPERTENSION

KWON, YOUNG-IN, APOSTOLIDIS, EMMANOUIL, SHETTY, KALIDAS·2007·Journal of Food Biochemistry

Abstract

Natural α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitors from food-grade plants offer an attractive strategy to control postprandial hyperglycemia for type 2 diabetes management. Concurrently associated macrovascular complication of hypertension can be managed by similar extracts by inhibition of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE ). In this study, nine types of pepper were investigated for inhibitory activity against said enzymes. Several pepper extracts had high α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, which was not correlated to total phenolic content and free radical scavenging-linked antioxidant activity. Select extracts such as Green pepper and Long hot pepper had less or no inhibitory effect on the α-amylase activity, which indicates the potential for reduced side effects. Among various water extracts, Yellow, Cubanelle and Red pepper had the highest ACE inhibitory activity. Therefore, combinations of pepper could be screened for dietary management of type 2 diabetes, associated hypertension and microvascular complications linked to oxidative dysfunction, and provide the basis for clinical studies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
